62% of Turkish Men Support Wife Beating

In entirely unrelated news, Turkey’s murder rate for women increased 1400% as the Islamist AKP party solidified its group on the formerly secular nation.Islam has a notoriously progressive attitude toward women with
Mohammed declaring that most of those in hell are women. And as Turkey
has drifted closer to Islam, the treatment of women has grown uglier.

A survey of 3500 Turkish men conducted
by the University of Kirikkale and the organisation “Happy Children”
prove what is anyway a truism in Turkey: of course most Turkish men
consider violence against women to be completely normal, sensible and
practical.
28 per cent of those polled thought violence against spouses to be
indispensable: it was needed to discipline them. 34 per cent were more
moderate and thought violence against spouses was only “necessary”
“occasionally”.

Abu Dawud (2142) – “The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: A man will not be asked as to why he beat his wife.”
Bukhari (72:715) – A woman came to Muhammad and begged her to stop
her husband from beating her. Her skin was bruised so badly that she it
is described as being “greener” than the green veil she was wearing.
Muhammad did not admonish her husband, but instead ordered her to return
to him and submit to his sexual desires.

And even the Koran’s version of the story of Job finds a way to get the wife beating in there.
“And take in your hand a green branch and beat her with
It and do not break your oath; surely We found him patient; most
excellent the servant! Surely he was frequent in returning (to Allah).”
Qur’an (38:44)
